Rule 2.7. Procedures for Sealing Record
(1) A party may request that the court seal a pleading, document or other matter by filing a written motion, or the Court may, upon its own motion, initiate proceedings to seal or redact a court record. A party or attorney of record seeking to seal a pleading, document or other matter shall comply with the requirements of 51 O.S.Supp.2012, § 24A.29. The motion shall disclose, in its title, that sealing is being sought and the grounds upon which sealing is required. The motion must be served on all parties to the action;
Materials shall not be sealed under these rules when a reasonable redaction will adequately resolve the issue. Nichols v. Jackson, 2001 OK CR 35, ¶ 15, 38 P.3d 228, 232; 51 O.S.Supp.2016, § 24A.5(2).
